Well this is a fine mess...
https://godbolt.org/z/MaPM7s8qr does the right thing, but is now
contrary to the prior discussion regarding calls in asm, which concluded
that the "+r"(rsp) was the way to go.
Furthermore GCC regressed in 9.0 and emits:
warning: listing the stack pointer register 'rsp' in a clobber list is
deprecated [-Wdeprecated]
which might be the intention of the developers, but is wrong seeing as
this is the only way to say "I modify the redzone" to the compiler...
